Chapter 950: Chapter 952: Possessing Three Pieces
Xiao Shan saw Chu Ge coming back and, sowhat excited, approached him. She was holding a pile of docunts in her arms and rushed excitedly up to Chu Ge, looked up at him, and said, “Manager Chu, you’re finally back.”
Chu Ge looked at Xiao Shan and couldn’t help but smile. Why did everyone he t say the sa thing, “finally back,” as if he was never coming back?
Chu Ge nodded. He looked at Xiao Shan with a smiling face and said, “Yes, just got back today. Where is President Mu?”
Xiao Shan’s smile stiffened for a mont. She chuckled awkwardly and said, “Well… President Mu hasn’t co to the company yet.”
Chu Ge was surprised and curiously asked, “Did she go to the hospital?”
Xiao Shan was stunned for a mont and instinctively asked, “Manager Chu, you already knew?”
Chu Ge smiled and said, “Since I ca in, I’ve been hearing people talk about it. How could I not know? It’s fine, he’s not back. I’ll wait in his office.”
As he spoke, Chu Ge pushed the door open and entered Mu Bingtong’s office.
Her office was as clean and tidy as ever, with lush green plants on the coffee table. Chu Ge walked up to the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the skyscrapers outside. Today, Shanghai’s weather was great, with azure skies and no clouds in sight. Standing by the window, the sunlight ward him comfortably.
Chu Ge found a stool and sat by the window, comfortably basking in the sun. He closed his eyes, thinking about the Heart thod Secret Manual that Master Guangde had given him before.
In Capital City, he was busy every day. There was only ti for training in the morning, and not enough ti to cultivate this ntal thod.
After silently reciting it a few tis, his body started to undergo so changes, feeling sowhat lighter than before.
But this minor change did not bring Chu Ge much joy. For him, having no progress in martial arts over the past two months was akin to regressing.
However, with Crystal Jade being so hard to find now, does he really need to do as Jian Chunqiu suggested, find soone for Dual Cultivation to make faster progress?
Lost in thought, Chu Ge suddenly heard the door behind him being pushed open.
Chu Ge snapped back to reality, turned around, and saw Xiao Shan standing at the doorway with a cup of coffee. “Manager Chu, your coffee.”
Chu Ge stood up, walked to the front of the sofa, and sat down, smiling, “Thank you.”
Xiao Shan scratched her head embarrassingly, “Mr. Chu, you’re making
a bit uncomfortable being so polite here.”
Chu Ge looked up at her, and just one glance made Xiao Shan blush slightly.
Xiao Shan awkwardly coughed softly and hurriedly said to Chu Ge, “Manager Chu, you continue with your work. I have to go back to mine.”
With that, without waiting for Chu Ge to say anything, she quickly turned around and ran away.
Leaving Chu Ge sitting there, puzzled. He glanced down at the coffee and then up at the door, shaking his head.
After drinking half a cup of coffee, Mu Bingtong returned.
She pushed open the door and saw soone sitting on the sofa. At this mont, Chu Ge was back-facing the door, looking down at a newspaper.
So, Mu Bingtong couldn’t see clearly who it was.
Chu Ge heard the door behind him again and, thinking it was Xiao Shan, jokingly said, “Xiao Shan, your President Mu hasn’t returned yet. You don’t need to keep checking on , just focus on your work.”
Mu Bingtong’s heart skipped a beat, this voice…
After Chu Ge spoke for a while without a response, he looked up from the newspaper to see Mu Bingtong standing surprised at the doorway.
“You’re back,”
Chu Ge said calmly, with a faint smile on his face, looking at Mu Bingtong.
Mu Bingtong did not expect it to be Chu Ge. Although she already recognized his voice, seeing his face still gave her a shock.
No one could understand the pressure she had endured during this ti; she particularly needed soone to care for her a little.
But her personality wouldn’t allow her to show weakness to anyone, not even Chu Ge. Several tis she wanted to call him but held back.
On one hand, she didn’t want to bother him, and on the other hand, she didn’t want to make him worry.
She knew Chu Ge had a lot to deal with every day in Capital City.
Chu Ge, seeing her staring at him in a daze, amusedly asked, “What’s wrong? It’s only been a while, and you don’t recognize
anymore?”
Mu Bingtong suppressed the fluttering in her heart after a long pause, smiled slightly, and walked over to sit next to Chu Ge. “Why did you suddenly co back?”
“There’s nothing much happening over in Capital City for now, and with such a big thing happening here in Shanghai, I ca back to see how things are going. How’s the company running?”
Chu Ge asked.
Mu Bingtong nodded and sighed, “This financial crisis has had a big impact on the company. We’ve lost quite a lot, and many employees have resigned because they see no hope.”
Mu Bingtong slightly lowered her eyes. Her tone was light, as if these weren’t big issues, but only Mu Bingtong knew how much pressure and hardship were involved, only she could understand.
“How long will you stay this ti?”
Mu Bingtong asked.
Chu Ge shook his head, “I don’t know yet. We all think this financial crisis was deliberate, and we need to investigate the matter clearly. We can’t just let it go unclear.”
Mu Bingtong was stunned, “You all?”
Chu Ge nodded, “I’ve t with Mr. Ouyang and the others, and they’ve already started investigating this matter.”
Mu Bingtong nodded, feeling enlightened. At the sa ti, he thought of sothing and looked gratefully at Chu Ge, “Thank you, Chu Ge. If it weren’t for the Ouyang Family transferring thirty billion at the crucial mont, Jinxiu Group wouldn’t have survived until now.”
Chu Ge smiled, “What are you talking about? This is what I should do, don’t take it to heart. The company has weathered the storm, and there are still many things you need to do.”
Mu Bingtong smiled, “I’ve gotten used to it.”
The two talked for a while, and suddenly Chu Ge’s phone rang. It was a call from Zhao Wuji.
Chu Ge picked it up in surprise, “Zhao Wuji, what’s up?”
This call from him surely ans sothing important.
Zhao Wuji’s cheerful voice ca through the phone, “Mr. Chu, I heard you ca back?”
“Yes, just got back today.”
Chu Ge smiled. Zhao Wuji was quite well-inford.
“Here’s the thing; Elder Jian called
and said I should keep an eye out for Crystal Jade for you. This morning, I got news that soone has three pieces of Crystal Jade. If we could buy them from him…”
Chu Ge was surprised. One piece of Crystal Jade was already hard to find, and this person actually had three pieces?
